Chelsea's Garnacho sits entire match on bench during loan at Aston Villa

Alejandro Garnacho did not play in Aston Villa's recent cup match, staying on the bench for the entirety of the game. This continues a disappointing start for the winger, who has only played 31 minutes since joining Villa on loan from Chelsea earlier this season. The terms of his loan require achieving specific targets for a potential permanent move, but it is unclear if Garnacho will meet these requirements given his lack of playing time. Chelsea is now concerned about the winger potentially returning to their squad with the loan option unlikely to be activated based on current performance.
